District Nurses
Har Professor
At Annual Dinner
Dr. Clifford Miller, professor
of social science at Southern Ore
gon college gave an interesting
description of life among the na
tives in southern and eastern
Africa when he spoke at the an
nual banquet of District 4, Ore

culties brought on by the 100 per

lation" during the past 25 years,
saying that the average native
family numbered six persons
who must be supported from 2V2

of the white man's opportunity
for education, and that even
three or four years of education
makes a great social change in
the life of these people.
About 60 registered nurses
and their guests heard Dr. Mil
ler's talk and were particularly
interested in his remarks about
the affect of modern medicine
on the people. He told of the
use of native trained nurses, both

charge of mission hospitals and
carry on for short periods when
the mission doctor is away.
